Abstract
PURPOSE: To report a unique case of bilateral horizontal pontine gaze palsy with concurrent esotropia, surgical management, and post-operative follow-up. OBSERVATIONS: A 39-year-old male presented with diplopia and a history of neurocysticercosis. He was found to have bilateral horizontal gaze palsy and concurrent esotropia, R > L. Classic bimedial rectus recess-resect surgery was done to include resection of the right lateral rectus muscle. Follow-up three months post-op demonstrates markedly improved diplopia. CONCLUSION AND IMPORTANCE: We present a recommended therapeutic approach for the rare case of concurrent bilateral horizontal gaze palsy and esotropia, which should be further evaluated in longitudinal studies.
